Tester & Handler independent RFID inventory

and insertion counting system

CC-1 is an RFID based module with remote antennas. The CC-1 communicates with the test system via C language API’s in the device test program. It can also communicate with a PC via USB to a GUI interface for immediate mode operation

AZ APPS provides the software API’s The GUI tool, and all the hardware needed to implement RFID test set management on your test floors

CC-1-M8

• Inventories the set up kit to ensure the right load board and contactors are installed for a device to be tested

• Counts the number of devices being tested and stores the totals on RFID tags on the contactors

• Is powered via a USB cable (+5 volts)

• Is controlled via the USB jack

• Includes 5 User programmable status LEDs that can be read back electronically by the test program

• Can have 1 / 8 / 16 antennas to contactors for multi-site test

• Plus 2 channels for the DUT Interface Board, and possibly a daughter board

• Data from the tags can be read locally at the tester or remotely over the network

• Uses very low transmit and receive power so as not to interference with test results

Why tag setup components?

•Because it attaches the relevant data to the component without the need for a large, cumbersome, multi-site database. •Because the data can be read back remotely from any site on the network

Contactor history data stored on the RFID tag stays with the device

CC-1 works with all AZ APPS MicroTesters

• Like all other MicroTesters– Operates autonomously with embedded processor

– Doesn’t interfere with other MicroTesters, or the test system

– Uses same communications protocols

– Computer / test platform independent
